FEKT-MPC-ROZAcad. year: 2025/2026

The course Recognition engages in methods of objects segmentation, detection and description of interest points and regions, classification and categorization, learning in recognition and multiimage reconstruction.

Language of instruction

Czech

Number of ECTS credits

6

Mode of study

Not applicable.

Guarantor

Ing. Karel Horák, Ph.D.

Department

Department of Control and Instrumentation (UAMT)

Entry knowledge

The knowledge on the level of the Bachelor's degree is required in the Recognition course. Moreover, knowledge and skills equivalent to the MPC-POV course are required.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

A group project (40 pts) and a final exam (60 pts) are evaluated during the Recognition course. For successful pass the course, obtaining of at least half of available points is required in both mentioned parts.
The content and forms of instruction in the evaluated course are specified by a regulation issued by the lecturer responsible for the course and updated for every academic year.

Aims

Aim of the course is to acquaint students with a term of object recognition based on local invariant descriptors and by means of learning in recognition. Students design, implement and verify task of object recognition in computer vision domain during a group projects.
Graduate of the course is able to analyse a recognition task of computer vision, to design and implement solution of it and to perform meaningful verification of a result.

Study aids
